Recently, which one of the following was included in the UNESCO’s World Heritage list?

Correct answer: 2) Kalka–Shimla Railway. The Kalka–Shimla Railway is part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing “Mountain Railways of India” and was inscribed as an extension to that serial property in 2008. The official UNESCO Mountain Railways entry documents the Kalka–Shimla line’s inscription and highlights the outstanding engineering achievements of these hill railways in negotiating difficult mountainous terrain [1]. Indian government sources (PIB) also list Kalka–Shimla Railway among India’s UNESCO-accredited railway World Heritage sites and note its 2008 inclusion, corroborating the UNESCO record [2].
